Chapter 587 - Land Replacement (Summoning Monthly Pass)
Then, a few old men combined and sold us. Uncle Li personally sent a letter of persuasion to the Goguryeo monarchs, telling them that the capital had fallen under the hands of my Tang Dynasty, and hoped that they would surrender as soon as possible and avoid the disaster of swordsmen, but Quangai Suwen reprimanded my Tang envoy instead.
"At that time, Your Majesty was not lightly angry, but it didn't take long for a detective to report that there was an abnormal ......movement in the Goguryeo camp," Uncle Li Jing continued with a smile on his eyebrows after pouring saliva.
Uncle Li sent a few dead soldiers to swim over, grabbed a live mouth and asked, only to know that thousands of Goguryeo people suddenly came to their camp, crying the news that the capital of Goguryeo was occupied, Quan Gai Suwen was silent on the surface, suppressed the chaos of the camp, and he himself went to the night to lead the most elite tens of thousands of elite soldiers quietly left the camp by night, and took away a large number of defensive equipment in a vain attempt to recapture the capital by night, after Uncle Li heard the news, he immediately divided his troops into three roads, two roads were empty, and one road was real, and forcibly crossed the Sashui, At this time, the Goguryeo people had already broken up at this time, and the soldiers had no fighting spirit, and as soon as they came into contact, they were immediately defeated, and more than 100,000 Goguryeo soldiers, those who surrendered were ten **, and the rest did not know where to hide.
"After His Majesty crossed the Sashui, he comforted Gao Zang with kind words to ask for surrender, and then asked Gao Zang to write a letter to Quan Gai Suwen, persuading him to come and surrender as soon as possible, otherwise, there will be no more Goguryeo Quan clan in the world, and then Quan Clan came to surrender, and we only knew that the old man had planted a big heel in your hands, hahaha......" Uncle Li Jing stroked his beard and raised his eyebrows and laughed.
Quangai Suwen and his family members were beheaded for public display, Gao Wu, the prince of Liao, cried and laughed, almost went crazy, for the sake of family revenge, killed the enemy, and the family revenge was avenged, but Goguryeo died, this is a national revenge, but this national revenge is his own self-inflicted, and he has to find himself if he wants revenge. To be honest, if it weren't for him, with his prestige, we Datang would have to pay a considerable price to control the territory we occupy now, but it is precisely because of the submission of two generations of monarchs that it has become much easier for us to rule this land in the Tang Dynasty, at least at this stage, we have achieved a double victory both militarily and politically.
----------------------------------------------------The rest, it's none of our business, eat and drink, Uncle Li surrendered to the Goguryeo monarchs and ministers outside the city, and then, Uncle Li sat in the palace of Goguryeo, and issued an edict to appease the people of the whole territory of Goguryeo, I came here from the Tang Dynasty, not only to rule, but also to bring you light and tolerance. Of course, the more than 100,000 Goguryeo prisoners of war who were originally captured and the nearly 200,000 Goguryeo troops who are now subdued were ordered by Uncle Li to undergo re-education through labor.
Uncle Li has understood the importance of roads for the rule of a country, and for these two avenues, the Ministry of Industry has already been measured and calculated, and the use of Goguryeo prisoners of war is not only as simple as saving financial expenditures for the country, but also weakening Goguryeo's human resources, and wants to rise and fall again? Do you have to be a soldier to fight? But right now, seven or eight out of ten adult men in Goguryeo are squatting in our Datang labor camp, anyway, we didn't kill them, and we left them to eat and drink well, but let them use their labor to atone for their crimes, and cultivate them for three and five years, during which they were given a lot of political education with a lot of local surnames, so that they could understand that they were also subjects of my Datang.
In addition, Da Borong, the great chief of the Su Dynasty, has been appointed as a plenipotentiary envoy, and invited all the tribes of the Su Dynasty, and two months later, they will gather in Pingliao City, which is now the capital of Goguryeo, to convene a meeting to recognize His Majesty Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty as the co-lord of all the people of the world, and to celebrate that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who is still in Chang'an, has become theirs, at least in honor, their master.
In addition, the Baekje Emperor hastily sent envoys to apologize for the crime, presenting countless gold and silver treasures, hoping that the Tang Dynasty would not attack Baekje, and they were willing to return all the Silla territory they had taken, and in addition, the Silla envoys also came to congratulate, hoping that Uncle Li could return the Silla territory occupied by Goguryeo. And their queen Seondeok will come to Pingliaocheng in person to congratulate Uncle Li on stepping on Goguryeo and achieving great things.
Uncle Li leaned on the couch in the palace of Goguryeo, took a sip of wine, and said to the ministers: "The major event of Goguryeo has been completed, and now the prince has come to congratulate the table, in addition, the tide of the people of my Tang Dynasty buying land has also intensified, and now, about 100,000 people have moved to Liaodong. I believe that it won't take a few years, and Liaodong will definitely be a big granary in my Datang, but the old man still wants to move my Datang people here. Uncle Li patted the low couch, and his eagle eyes flashed.
Everyone understands that Uncle Li is referring to the land east of Yalu Water. "Move, should move, move the Goguryeo people here to the south of the Liao River, and then, my Tang soldiers, if there are those who are willing to stay in Liaodong, or those who are disabled due to the war, we can also reward them with good land and livestock houses, in this way, we can also increase the number of people in our Tang Dynasty in this area, besides, if there is a war, it is an elite soldier, in addition to this trick, we can also continue to sell land, or land replacement." I smiled grimly, like an owl hovering over a mound, chirping in the middle of the night, and a brilliant solution.
"Land exchange?" Uncle Lee didn't understand what I meant. The ministers on the side also did not understand the term land exchange. I explained in detail: "Land replacement is to change the ownership of these lands through "change of ownership", "translocation", "change of rights" and "ease of use", and merge and integrate them together, so that the location tends to be concentrated, the area is more large, and the land is more regular, so as to facilitate full development and utilization." That is to say, the people in the densely populated areas of our Datang who are willing to come to Liaodong can obtain several times more land here than the acres of land they have obtained in our Datang territory, and the highest or even ten times the land. In this way, they don't have to worry about not coming. Then, we use the Goguryeo people here to fill the land west of the Liao River and the Hetao area...... In this way, not only can the land around Guanzhong in my Datang be recuperated, but also the population density can be reduced, and now the population of Guanzhong has exceeded the load of the land, and if I don't take action, there will be more and more disasters. ”
Uncle Li's eyes lit up, nodded, turned his head and asked the ministers, "What do you think?" ”
"This method is good, in fact, my Datang can not only use this method for Liaodong, but also for the land of the two lakes. Although the people of my Guanzhong are rich, they have already had disadvantages because of the hardships of the land. "I was taken aback by what Eldest Sun Wuji said, and I didn't expect him to agree to my suggestion anyway.
---------------------------------------------------- "To the founding of the Tang Dynasty for decades, the population of Guanzhong has been several times, and there is no place to send it, and now the people can only reclaim the wasteland, but it is extremely difficult to be effective. The eldest grandson Wuji took a sip of tea, glanced at me, nodded lightly, and continued to Uncle Li: "However, because of the sale of land in Liaodong, it has been alleviated a little, and when I was in Chang'an, I heard that the people who bought the most land in Liaodong were the people of my Guanzhong land. ”
"Oh?" Uncle Li twisted his brows, pondered for a long time, and said: "The population of my Tang Dynasty is prosperous, with Guanzhong as the most, and then Hedong, Hebei, Henan, and Shannan. The population has exhausted most of the world, and Lingnan, Qianzhong, and Jiannan have a few provinces, which add up to only one percent. Not to mention wild places such as Longyou, well, this method is good, Wuji, you immediately draw up a charter and do this thing, the sooner you do it, the better. First to Liaodong, and then to my Tang Dynasty, also use this method, the old man heard people's words, if the land south of the Yangtze River can be developed, it can be full of food in the world. That's it, well, that's what you kid said. Uncle Li pointed his finger at me again and smiled.
Hearing Uncle Li's words, I could only respond with a dry smile, it was indeed what I said, but now is the time to develop Jiangnan, at least before the road to Jiangnan is built, it is simply delusional to want to develop. Now the development of Liaodong and the north of Liaodong is the most practical, the weather is cold? What are you afraid of, the hot pit is finished, the cotton clothes are finished, in short, the soldiers will block the water to cover the earth, I still don't believe it, I can't put the bitter cold land of Liaodong, one day, I want to make this place into the south of the Yangtze River.
As for the eldest grandson Wuji, I have to say that he took this head really well, this important task was handed over to him, according to his political strength and level, he will definitely do it perfectly, and he will definitely be praised by Uncle Li, however, in this matter, I don't have any opinion on him, first of all, the first point, he does this thing, it is more appropriate than anyone else to do it, first, he is the leader of the Guanzhong clan, and it is far better than others for him to come forward.
Then, I came into contact with another topic, and that was the issue of the envoys of Silla and Baekje. The envoys on both sides have now arrived in the capital of Goguryeo, and Uncle Li has not seen anyone for some reason, just to negotiate a plan within the Tang Dynasty first.
